Two Ups and Two Downs of Pregnancy

Its a cold and rainy day here in Mesa so there's not much going on and it leaves me time to think about my ups and downs this week of pregnancy. I have to say the first down is insomnia. I plain ole flat out cannot sleep. This is really starting to affect my daily functions. I know its all in preparation for when the babe gets here but I would much rather take the hit then since there is a very clear reason for it. This pregnancy insomnia thing is just sillyness. My other down is that I ache all over and have carpel tunnel, which is more likely to happen in pregnancy. I really need a good loooooonnnnnngggggg massage, ahem. On the bright side, this little one moves a lot and I am really excited to be able to actually feel little elbows and feet every now and then. Its so exciting watching my belly jump and twist. I am also starting to want to nest a little. I am trying to figure out where all the time went because now I only have three months until the baby comes and there is so much that I need to do. We have a friend throwing a baby shower for me in March which is also really nice and helping me feel a little calmer about the three month thing. So that's what's up and down this week.

Avia's phrase for the day, "Mommy I don't want a baby under my shirt too."
